Hey guys. I'm fairly new here. Been lurking for a while and decided to start a log and start posting more. I've been working out for about 2 years on and off, but I'm more serious about more than ever right now. I am 6' and weighed 203 today (with shoes, shorts, shirt.) and plan on adding as much mass as possible. I plan on keeping this active and would love any comments/advice.

Current supplements - Dymatize whey, NOW dextrose, Primaforce CEE, CytoSport cytogainer (meal replacement). I also take BSN's no xplode and cellmass from time to time.

Here's my current routine:
Day1 - Back, abs
Day2 - Chest, biceps
Day3 - Rest
Day4 - Legs, calves
Day5 - Shoulders, Traps, Triceps
Day6 - Rest
Repeat

Here was my back session from today and some pics I took an hour ago or so:

Pullups - BWx8,8,7
Deadlifts from floor - 135x12, 185x10, 225x8, 315x1, 325x0 (couldn't lock out), 225x10
DB Rows (one arm, rest it on db rack) - 65x10, 80x10, 105x8...back felt amazing
Close Grip Pulldowns - 100x15, 120x12, 160x9 couldn't get 10th one
DB Pullovers - 30x12, 40x12, 50x12
Side bends on hyperextension - 2x10 each side
Decline bench sit ups - 2x30
Rope Crunches 72.5x20, 87.5x20

Today's chest and bi:

Chest press machine - 55x12, 70x12 (warm up)
Db press - 60x10, 70x10, 80x7 (last time could only get 6)
Incline db press - 50x10, 60x10, 40x12 (drop set)
Incline push ups - 15
Cable flys (standing) - 20x10, 22.5x10, 25x10
Chest press machine - 175x12, 190x12, 235x6 (had a small range of motion, trying to maximize pump)
----
BB curls - 65x12, 75x10, 85x10
Preacher curl machine - 3x15 80lbs

My back was so tight today it felt awesome. Chest is probably my weakest area. Tommorrow I rest and then I'll get those legs Friday!

philosopher - thanks man, I'm definitely going to.
Hypocrisy86 - thanks. I got the routine from Dorian (I think it was blood and guts?).
Flex - yeah after reading some of your posts I figured it was you. Last time I saw you post on gb you were getting ready for a show right? If so how's that coming?
Rocky - Thanks bro. Your log is inspiring!
Lionheart - Thank you. Back = my favorite bodypart.

I feel you with chest being a weak area. Still you got an extra rep this session which is always an improvement!

Thanks Rocky! I've put on 100 lbs to my 1RM since starting lifting (now it's 220). It's kind of embarassing with all those little plates sometimes. :disgust:

Leg extension - 70x10 (single leg), 85x10 (single leg), 190x10, 100x15 (drop set)
Single legged DL's - 135x10, 185x10, 135x12 (drop set), 95x15
Lying leg curls - 65x10 (single), 65x10 (single), 140x10
Standing Smith Machine calf raises - 2 platesx6, 4 platesx6
Sitting Smith Machine calf raises - 2 platesx15, 2 platesx15

Legs felt good. I can't stand squating but we got to do them.

Gotto love a great squat session. If you wanna build some serious wheels than learn to love it. Looks like a heavy leg session m8. I'm sure you'll be sore after this one.

notes: great pump. if you guys are wondering why my iso-lateral machine numbers are funky, here's a link to the equipment - http://us.commercial.lifefitness.com/content.cfm/iso-lateralrowing)
quetions: Are my BB row totals low (rarely do them, feel weak compared to my DB rows)? How do you guys incorporate deadlifts and rack deadlifts into your workouts?

Some great sessions in here.

Strong legs to get through all those exercises.

Shoulder supersets looked brutal!

Deads are supreme especially not having done racks before.
Personally I'd do deads earlier in the session whilst you're feeling fresh!
